Winget generators

First published:

Generate the winget commands to install, uninstall or upgrade a package, in either Powershell or CMD. Each pair is a detection script and an action script, which is the shape Intune and most deployment tools expect.

Enter a package ID below — you can look one up on winget.run — then pick an action and a language.

if ($Available -eq 'Available') { Exit 0 }
elseif ($Available -eq 'Version') { Exit 0 }
